While inserting images using a Gallery is convenient, I would not recommend it in this case because the resolution is too low to comfortably read. Did you try either inserting the images as individual images instead and link each to the full-size image or perhaps uploading the article as a PDF?

Are you going to be posting entirely in two separate languages or will one language occasionally be used in a post?

I'll make a request for the button to also be included to TLR interface languages too.

Thanks!

Thanks much for the update. This is good news.
Can you also show this button when LTR interface language is selected? Many Hebrew users, myself included, use LTR for user interface in their web browser, office s/w, etc., because the Hebrew translation of technical terms is often quite awkward. More importantly, English speaking WP users who blog on issues that involve Hebrew, Arabic, or Hindu would find such a button highly useful.
Best,
Amir

Precisely. The "Here there are" para is the one into which I manually inserted the dir=ltr tag yesterday.
All the others are without it, yet when you right-click them in html they show writing direction left to right.
Until that button is added to the editor I'll insert tags manually.
Thanks for taking care of this issue.

Yes I see what you mean. Interestingly, some of the LTR paragraphs have a full stop in the right place. It's correct in the paragraph that starts, "Here there are two principles applicable".

Further down the full stop appears on the left. I can see this in the paragraph that starts "Any person employed in the public service who". It looks like the full stop has been inserted in RTL mode — which is why it is appearing on the wrong side for LTR text.

At the moment there are two options:

1. Add the RTL tags manually

2. Use the the following button on the editor in the WP Admin Dashboard:

It looks like this button is missing from the new editor though, so I'll raise that issue.

Thanks!

Well, not so quickly.
Please look here: https://amirlicht.wordpress.com/2015/03/12/4/
Please ignore the Hebrew text [or enjoy it:)] and focus on the paragraphs in English. I have now edited the first para in English and inserted "dir=ltr" in the html view, but only in the first para. This para now shows correctly, with the full stop at the end of the last sentence.
If you right-click on any other English para you will see that the writing direction is left-to-right but they are jumbled nonetheless, the full stop showing at the end of the para showing on the left-hand side of the last line.
So there is need to manually add the tags, which is quite inconvenient and probably unknown to most bloggers.
Please forward this to anyone who may help.
Thanks,
Amir

One other tip you may find useful is when your cursor is in the Post Editor box, you can also right click and select "Writing direction." (However, this doesn't work in the forums.) This should automatically add the RTL tag like so:<p style="direction: rtl;">טקסט</p>

I've checked this in my test blog and it appears to work correctly.

More digging in the forums yielded the solution, from here:https://en.forums.wordpress.com/topic/bilingual-posts-hebrew-english?replies=1

1. Go to the HTML tab of the post.
2. In the paragraphs that read from right-to-left add "dir=rtl" to the paragraph tag so it reads: <p dir=rtl>.

If it helps, you can have your site in Hebrew, but your interface in English.
Go here https://wordpress.com/settings/general/wordpress27205.wordpress.com and under the Language setting you can set Hebrew as the site language, but in your profile setting, you can set your interface to English. There's a link to it under the Language setting.

This is probably best only if most of your site content is in Hebrew (including your chosen theme) with occasional English content.

You're welcome.

One more thing, I saw that when the interface language is hebrew ,the posts are automatically rtl, but since I like my interface to be in english, it would be nice to have this option in the settings, so my interface will still be in english but all my posts will be in rtl without needing to add tag every time, and for places like adding urls I can define them to be ltr.

Having said that, I don't know the frequency or ratio of your RTL to LTR text in a single post, but you can also write one post LTR and a separate post RTL and then use tags to display them separately. Let me know if that is relevant.
